Anthea Turner's fruits of the earth medley recipe

"One of my favourite ways of cooking and presenting all the wonderful veg, showing off their rich colours and succulent tastes, is with a roasted medley of roots.  I serve this with roast pork and roasted potatoes.  For a Sunday lunch I finish off with apple crumble and ice cream - home made if I have the time.  Everyone is happy."
